The pixies mini-g is a tiny little vibrator only a tad larger than a fountain pen. It takes two AAA batteries (not included) that give you about 3 hours of play time before they run out. The 2 1/2" circumference is rather unappealing to me, but it does have a contoured tip to pinpoint your erogenous zones. It is controlled like a flashlight with a rubber button at the bottom, and there is only one vibration setting.

What's great about this product is that what it lacks in size, it makes up for in power! It's easy to grip, and the pen point tip makes it easy to concentrate on one area. It's also waterproof, and makes an excellent companion in the shower. The gasket on the bottom does a very efficient job of keeping water away from the batteries. It's also very quiet, and virtually silent if you do choose to use it internally. There is a plastic tube around the batteries for noise control, so make sure this doesn't accidentally fall out when changing the batteries. The contour tip makes it easy to pinpoint exactly where you want pleasure. I like it better than a bullet because it's easier to grip, and there's less slipping and sliding. The size is very non threatening, so it would be a great toy for girls and boys just starting out.

Keeping in mind that this is not a high end gadget, one can reasonably expect there to also be a few flaws. My main gripe is that it is not ideal for anal play. Because it's so slender and lacks a wide base it could easily get sucked up into an eager asshole. So unless you just WANT to end up in a doctors office with a vibrator lodged in your tailpipe, please only use this product for external anal stimulation. I'm not a big fan of using plastic products internally because I prefer a more lifelike material inside my hoo hoo (that's a technical term). I thought the contoured tip might feel nice on my G-spot, but i couldn't really feel the vibrations internally (but I won't let this tiny detail effect my rating because my G-spot responds more to pressure than vibrations anyway).

The mini G is easy to clean. I use antibacterial hand soap and warm water, and then sanitize it by wiping with a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol. Plastic toys can be shared after sanitizing, and alcohol will not damage the product. I can't speak for the orange, but the blue plastic shell on mine has held up well. It has not become damaged or discolored in the 5 months I've owned it.

To keep my plastic toys in tip top shape I do three things:
1) Wash (and sanitize if possibly) throughly after every use
2) Store in a in a cool/dry place (preferably in a pouch/cloth so they don't touch other toys)
3) Remove the batteries when not in use.

At first sight this unassuming little toy seems fairly blah. I wasn't too excited about it, but reluctantly purchased it anyway after a sales associate at my local adult novelty store highly recommended it. She's never disappointed me in the past so I figured at around $10 it was worth trying. When I got home I inserted batteries, turned it on-BZZZZzzZZz- and wow. The vibes are exquisitely powerful and gave me a unique sensation on my clit. It did a outstanding job of getting me in the mood (I know this is a problem for a lot of ladies). I'm the kind of girl who likes clitoral and Gspot stimulation, so I found it best to use this product in conjunction with a dildo or penis. My favorite time to use the mini G is while stuck in traffic jams on my way home from work.

It's so small I can hide it in my purse or car console. It not only gets me hot and heavy for my man before I even walk in the door, it is also a great cure for car boredom and/or horniness.
